But here's the thing, this was no freak accident, but a result of faulty safety procedures and no prior rehearsals. This stunt sequence took place at Tippagondanahalli lake, 35 kms from Bangalore. Both of them along with lead actor Duniya Vijay were asked to jump off a helicopter 100 ft off the ground. Both Kannada actors (who were also referred to as stuntmen) drowned to death while performing a stunt for an upcoming Kannada film Mathigudi. A few reviewers said MastiGudi is a film best ignored unless you’re a die-hard Duniya Vijay fan.A day after Kannada actor Uday's body was found, Anil's body was recovered this morning from the lake. MastiGudi is a semi-period film, about protecting nature from the forces that try to make huge money at the cost of wild animals. The movie is based on real-life incidents, and director Nagashekhar has added elements of comedy, action and romance to the script to make it a pure entertainer. Both families were very emotional and often wept as they saw the actors performing onscreen.Īccording to movie critics, Raghava Uday and Anil Kumar, who played the antagonists in the movie, don't seem to have justified characters and seem more comical than menacing. During the screening of the film, the families of Anil and Uday were seeing them for the last time on the big screen. The film, which has been in the news for all the wrong reasons, has next to nothing that’s redeemable in it. Lapses on the part of the film crew as well as the actors led to their death. Two young Kannada actors Uday Raghav, 32, and Anil Kumar Venugopal, 33, died while performing a stunt for the film at the Thippagondanahalli Reservoir, 35 km west of Bengaluru, from a helicopter. The disaster that struck the shooting of the Kannada movie MastiGudi, starring Duniya Vijay, Amulya and Kriti Kharbanda in the lead roles, has shaken the Kannada film industry.
